Song lyrics to I Cried for You, written by Arthur Freed, Gus Arnheim, Abe Lyman
I cried for you
Now it’s your turn to cry over me
Every road has a turning
That’s one thing you’re learning
I cried for you
What a fool I used to be
Now I’ve found two eyes
Just a little bit bluer
I’ve found a heart
Just a little bit truer
I cried for you
Now it’s your turn to cry over me
